What is the limit of numbers of shares each day?
I get a message that I have exceded my permited number of shares, try again tomorrow. If I knew the numer I am permitted I could trim my list

7 years agoHey there JB1759, sorry for the tardy response; are you still having issues with this?
As you've found out, there is a limit of individual shared link recipients and shared folder invitations per day for Dropbox Basic, Dropbox Professional trial, and Dropbox Business trial accounts.
The error message “You've hit the limit of invites you can send per day. Try again in 24 hours”, that occurs when you are attempting to share a link to a folder or file or shared a folder, indicates that you have sent too many invitations in one day.
This limit is reset every day, so you will be able to continue to send links to other users the next day.
I hope this information helps and please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you for reviewing my problem. If I knew how many daily shares are allowed I can break my list into pieces and share to each portion so I know everyone gets access. I need a number.

Thanks for the additional information JB1759 - much appreciated.
As this turns out to be an account specific inquiry, I'd recommend that you logged a ticket with our team and ask directly.
You can do so from the following page: https://www.dropbox.com/support
Let me know if there's anything else I can assist with in the meantime.

I am looking for a finite number. This may be a spam prevention issue but it would seem a number could be shared as a robo spamer would be a more expansive issue.

That type of information (assuming it's shared at all) is likely different for each type of account, and wouldn't be available to the people that provide help here. As Walter suggested, you'll need to contact Support directly if you need further assistance.
